UN Boss: “The United Nations Is the Parliament of Humanity”

The United Nations, often ridiculed as the “dictators club” by critics, is actually the “Parliament of Humanity” and “a beacon for all humanity,” declared UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon (shown) in statements celebrating UN Day on the 70th anniversary of the global outfit's founding. In a bizarre speech given in New York City amid the controversial celebrations, the UN boss even went perilously close to deifying the scandal-plagued organization he leads, claiming it brings hope, peace, security, and sustenance to the world. He also said humanity has a duty to unite behind the UN and its blue flag. The dangerous implications of turning the dictator-dominated UN into a global parliament, though, were left unaddressed.

To mark the occasion, which often sees American critics of the UN burn its controversial blue flag in anti-UN ceremonies, UN boss Ban said there is only one flag for all humanity: the UN flag. “National flags are a mark of pride and patriotism in every country around the world,” he said in a statement sent out with a press release. “But there is only one flag that belongs to all of us.” Growing up in wartime Korea, Ban continued, the blue flag of the UN was a “banner of hope for me.” Of course, the UN, its founders, and many of its member regimes were primarily responsible for the horrors Ban alluded to, so it was not immediately clear why the UN flag would represent a banner of hope. Meanwhile, the mass-murdering regime in North Korea remains a proud UN member to this day, with a vote in the UN General Assembly given equal weight to the vote of the U.S. government.

Still, seven decades after its founding at a summit chaired by American bureaucrat (and convicted Soviet communist agent) Alger Hiss, the founding father of the UN, the UN remains “a beacon for all humanity,” Ban claimed. “Every day, the United Nations feeds the hungry and shelters those driven from their homes,” the UN chief continued, apparently referring to the various scandal-plagued UN missions financed primarily by Western taxpayers. “The United Nations vaccinates children who would otherwise die from preventable diseases. The United Nations defends human rights for all, regardless of race, religion, nationality, gender or sexual orientation.”

“The United Nations works for the entire human family of seven billion people, and cares for the earth, our one and only home,” Ban continued in his remarks. “And it is the diverse and talented staff of the United Nations who help bring the Charter to life. … The timeless values of the UN Charter must remain our guide. Our shared duty is to 'unite our strength' to serve 'we the peoples'.” Again, the charter was created under the guidance and chairmanship of Hiss, the convicted Soviet spy that the UN hopes to shove down the Orwellian “memory hole.”

But it is hardly the first time the UN chief and others have shined a bit of light on their true agenda — transforming the UN into a true global government. Indeed, it appears that an overwhelming majority of the UN's member regimes — especially the most corrupt and oppressive among them — support the idea. As The New American reported last year in a massive story that was ignored by virtually every establishment media outlet in the world, a coalition of more than 130 governments and dictatorships known as the G77 Plus (Communist) China came together at a summit in Bolivia to demand empowering the UN General Assembly as an “emblem of global sovereignty.”

Unsurprisingly, UN boss Ban was in Bolivia for the New World Order summit, praising the oftentimes brutal attendees and their mission to create a global totalitarian government. He also called on them to keep agitating for autocratic “sustainable development” and “solutions” to so-called “climate change,” a key pillar of the agenda to further empower the UN. “All countries need to act on these priorities — individually and collectively,” Ban told the attendees, claiming the “fate of billions” depended on the success of their efforts. “That is how I understand the theme of this Summit — a New World Order for Living Well.” As the largest bloc of governments in the UN, he added, they have a “key role” to play in advancing the global outfit’s goals.

As Senior Editor William F. Jasper outlined in a 2012 investigation for this magazine, the UN is now on the verge of becoming a full-fledged planetary government. It has, among other attributes, a brutal (and incompetent) war-making military force disguised as a “peacekeeping” army, kangaroo courts purporting to dispense international “justice,” an environmental ministry, a health ministry, and much, much more. It is now openly seeking global taxes and a global currency, which, if achieved, would remove the final restraint on the creation of a true global government, or, as Ban put it, a “Parliament of Humanity.”

The American Sovereignty Restoration Act, a bill currently sitting in the House Foreign Affairs Committee, would withdraw U.S. membership from the UN and evict the controversial outfit from U.S. soil. Rather than allowing the dictator-dominated global outfit to become a “Parliament of Humanity,” Americans should educate themselves on the threat posed to U.S. liberties and sovereignty by the UN. Once the danger is understood, Americans can work with their elected representatives to extricate the United States from the global “parliament,” thereby preserving their God-given liberties and their inherent right to govern themselves under the U.S. Constitution.
